Putting Stardust to the Test So You Don't Have To! 

Great review!

Looks a good Powder Paint. Like you said in certain applications. yes I would like to see the open pour.

Great test. Most of my shaky heads I simply paint black and then do a epoxy clear coat I may very well look into this product I would like to see that craw hand pour in the future.

Them coloured craw look orsum would love to see how you did them .

well Mr Sir all i can say is 💣 B O O M !! 💣 😎 👊 Impressive stuff fer sure... 👌

Thanks for sharing Adam, going to try some of that paint

yes please on the craws

I hold the jig head at the hook eye with my forceps. Keeps the powder coat out of the hook eye beautifly.

Thank you for this! I appreciate you doing such an in depth test. If it’s this durable and I don’t have to cook it and worry about runs I’ll have to get some too.

Great video buddy! Thank you for all you do. Love the durability test and tips on application. Hope you are well my friend.

Just wonder how it would affect the sound of a chatter bait type application. Looks to be more of a vinyl than a paint.

Looks like a durable paint. I watched a video using stardust to paint spinner baits, it painted the baits with ease!! Thanks for the durability test, I wondered how it would hold up under real fishing conditions. It passed the test!! Thanks Adam for sharing!!

Cool! can you layer this over regular protec or protec layered over this? If i did layer/combine them on the same jig would I be able to cure in the oven? Thank you - appreciate your videos.

Yes would love to see the pour on the craw. I have the paint but have not had the chance to use yet. One of the video I watched said to trim around eye of hooks with razor and it would peel right off. Did you try that

BOOM! 💥 🤓 Good stuff man! Enjoyed it

That was AWESOME!!!! I discovered with really small heads you have to paint them and let them cool for a bit before smoothing the paint out with more heat. It seems to need alot of heat to really smooth the paint out. I'm definitely using it for shaky heads and heavy football jigs and arky style heads. Well done Adam, great demo!!! BTW, what size heat shrink tubing are you using?? I tried that before and I think I was using too small of a size as it was a pain to get on.

Super tests! Would love to see you do a open pour craw. Going to try some Stardust powder on my next order.

Es ist ein ähnliches Produkt wie das Silikon Puder von Optimum ,dass es von Mikra gibt.Ich habe 13 verschiedene Silikon Farben von Optimum T.P...Super Sache

Good video. Do you know if Stardust can be used in a Powder Paint Spray Gun? It seems thicker & different than the Protect powder paint.

so, i been using it for few months , and testing it . heat gun is better and dipping it water is waist of time and some times leaves stains . with heat gun i heat it till its glass like finish and then air cool it on a rack and will never chip

What is that swim jig mold you were using

You air brush 100% on the detailed lead heads

Have you tried the clear over regular powder paint? wondering if it would increase durability

Looks like great paint. Love those plastic choices. Those eyes had you shaking 🤣

I mentioned a tip in another video that I pour my larger jigs one at a time,quickly cut the sprue off,tap the head on a flap piece of steel to flatten where the sprue was,and dip real fast.It creates a very thin coat,which powder should be so not to become brittle and chip.This has to be done real quick so the jig doesn't have much more time to cool than what it did the second or two it was in the mold.It can also coat the hook eye with no cleaning needed.This process sounds slow but it's actually worked out to save time,you don't have to reheat and then dip the jig to paint it and you don't have to clean the eye.Maybe one downside of this process is you'll rub off a good bit of the powder if you use the stand up racks,but hanging them by the hook with that very thin coat doesn't have them forming bumps of paint though. What I forgot to mention in that video was it also leaves a lot of the detail viewable,I have the 1/2-1.5oz Ultra minnow mold and can see most if not all the detail (except on the heavier/thicker paints) when done that way.I know it isn't going to help with this stuff but with your regular powders it will. IDK if you have to drive very far to test them,but retrieving them across the asphalt works really good for testing.When landing it also adds a shock about comparable to getting a lil snagged in rocks and will chip it if the paints going to chip.

Would love to see an open pour video in that pattern!

What size heat shrink tubing do you use in this video

Oh Lawd those remelt open pours look good. Thanks for the review, seen the stardust around but never an indepth video on it till now. Way thicker than I imagined but as you said there's certain jigs that it's just fine for. Given that it's a little rubbery I wonder if pro-cure would adhere any better or worse than on powder or straight lead... Ah and who makes that shrimp mold? Looks good. Any other good shrimp molds you know of that are kind of 'saltwater' style? Thanks

I think it looks better on jigs that have no detail and do not have molded collars or bait keepers. The paint looked clumpy there. But its always nice to have other options. Not sure I would call that White Camo, but I do like the design after the cure. You could really get fancy there.

My concern is using stardust might turn me into a hippie. Next thing you know I’ll be naming kid moonchild and putting on my Birkenstocks to go to fishing. Other than that the stuff seems pretty good in certain applications. Thanks
